Robert W.R. Taylor

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a person adorned in a colorful outfit and an elaborate headdress. The subject wears a red tunic with green details, tied with a blue sash around the waist. The headdress has multicolored feathers, including shades of green, red, and blue. The figure stands on a square base made of wood with a realistic texture. The person's stance is dynamic, with one arm raised holding an object, while the other is positioned at the waist. The sculpture includes detailed features like the facial expression, and is presented in a slightly three-dimensional form. The material seems to be painted wood or a similar substance.
